Opening Words:

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”

Psalm 19:14 (ESV)

Confession:

Let us humbly confess our sins unto Almighty God.

Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen.

The Invitatory

Lord, open our lips.
And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Venite (Psalm 95:1-7)

Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: 
Come let us adore him.

Come, let us sing to the Lord; * 
let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving * 
and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.

For the Lord is a great God, * 
and a great King above all gods.

In his hand are the caverns of the earth, * 
and the heights of the hills are his also.

The sea is his, for he made it, * 
and his hands have molded the dry land.

Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, * 
and kneel before the Lord our Maker.

For he is our God, 
and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *

Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!

Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: 
Come let us adore him.

The Psalter

Psalm 18

Part I

Diligam te, Domine.

1

I love you, O Lord my strength, *

O Lord my stronghold, my crag, and my haven.

2

My God, my rock in whom I put my trust, *

my shield, the horn of my salvation, and my refuge;

you are worthy of praise.

3

I will call upon the Lord, *

and so shall I be saved from my enemies.

4

The breakers of death rolled over me, *

and the torrents of oblivion made me afraid.

5

The cords of hell entangled me, *

and the snares of death were set for me.

6

I called upon the Lord in my distress *

and cried out to my God for help.

7

He heard my voice from his heavenly dwelling; *

my cry of anguish came to his ears.

8

The earth reeled and rocked; *

the roots of the mountains shook;

they reeled because of his anger.

9

Smoke rose from his nostrils

and a consuming fire out of his mouth; *

hot burning coals blazed forth from him.

10

He parted the heavens and came down *

with a storm cloud under his feet.

11

He mounted on cherubim and flew; *

he swooped on the wings of the wind.

12

He wrapped darkness about him; *

he made dark waters and thick clouds his pavilion.

13

From the brightness of his presence, through the clouds, *

burst hailstones and coals of fire.

14

The Lord thundered out of heaven; *<
